Seeing how Google alone has paid Apple around 100 BILLION dollars for that stolen privacy, so far, it isn't an unrealistic idea that the litigation lawyer, who picked this class action lawsuit up, is in cohorts with Apple. Get 30 million dollars to end a lawsuit that should have cost Apple tens of billions.

denying "wrong doing" does not mean "denying eaves-dropping".

Hilarious, to say the least.
"Look, there was no wrongdoing on our part, that much we will deny, but here's some cash under the rug because there WAS actually some wrongdoing so we don't want you to delve into the topic no longer!!"

Typical American affair... You have to be really foolish to believe that companies such as apple and google would not "listen" via your phone. Most people know it, even if these companies strongly denies it all the time. It's a part of their core business (google even more than apple) as big data is knowledge and knowledge is power. A class action lawsuit is nothing more than a way to earn a quick win for those who filed it but it will never change, even if they win. And these two are not alone at doing such practices. Many more want to know what you say and/or think as this data can earn them a shitload of money in different ways. Many companies are all too eager to buy such data so that they can adjust their offerings accordingly. Stop playing the victim and start making sure that those companies respect the right to privacy to the full extend or just change the laws in a way that the so called privacy rules are regulated and/or limited (as there is a lot of abuse on it as well such as criminality that hides behind privacy...).

Ha... moreYou cannot CHOOSE control of your data on Android! Try it per app, see how well if at all how each app behaves when you choose to block access!!
Like why does a map app need access to your browser bookmarks, browsing history? Why does a cooking app or fitness app need access to your contacts!!? Having access to a share sheet to broadcast fitness data or a contacts address location IF present is all it does NOT nedd to know WHOM!

OR aimoly just do NOT care so long as so much is cheap or features are FREE!
Case in point Android vs iOS!
Aplle over 5yrs ago FORCED theie iOS to respect users choice to have apps NOT have access to data nor share it despite the code in the App.
Android Apps us the end user does NOT have that conteol! Block anything any app wants and 7/10 the app will not function properly!
Google made the same.statement Apple did but F all has changed! On Android YOU and YOUR Data is the prize! On Apple your WALLET is the prize!
Plain and simple and Ive used BOTH platforms back abd forth for years: aint nothing has changed!!!
